Ronit Roy told in an interview, ‘There is a famous dhaba outside Bandra station. I used to eat there every night, only once a day, because I could eat only that much. One day I used to get black lentils and roti, and the next day I used to get roti with palak paneer… all this was given in turn, that was all I got. One day, I went there and asked a man working there for just two rotis and an onion because I had no money left.’

Ronit Roy further said, ‘But he also gave me lentils and said that it was from me. And that moment stayed in my mind.’ The actor recalled that he got Rs 50,000 for his first movie in 1991, which proved to be a turning point for him. The actor said that he never had money in those days. He could barely make ends meet with all the movies he did.
